Application of Inquiry-Based Assessment: Primary Docs

Think Like a Historian!

In this video the classes are using primary sources to answer and analyze a question in groups that is posed to the entire class at the beginning of the period. To take this fully to inquiry-based assessment, students could individually write responses to the question in the form of essays or papers using the primary sources. Analysis of the primary sources should still be done in groups in class. 

This assesses not only content, but student's ability to critically evaluate sources and develop a solid argument about the question in their paper.
